The Nord Stage 2 EX Compact sports Nord's semi-weighted waterfall keybed, one of the fasted keybeds you'll get your hands on. The rounded tips on the keys give this keyboard a smooth feel that's perfect for fast organ and synth passages. This keybed has a note range of E to E.

Piano, organ and synth sound engines onboard

From expansive grand pianos to searing synthesizer leads, the Nord Stage 2 EX Compact does it all. You'll be able to cover a wide range of musical styles in a single session, and a slew of dedicated function controls makes it easy to tweak your sounds until they're perfect for your application. You can even engage the piano, organ and synth sections simultaneously to create huge layered sounds.

Choose your favorite instruments from the Nord Piano Library

The Nord Stage 2 EX Compact boasts 1GB of memory for sounds from the Nord Piano Libary. This is Nord's collection of painstakingly emulated instruments including acoustic and electric pianos, harpsichords, clavinets, and much more. While the factory-included sounds on the Stage 2 EX Compact are outstanding, you'll be able to pick and choose even more from the Nord Piano Library.
